Tuition forfeitures are fees that are charged when you make changes to your schedule. You are charged one-half of the tuition reduction (50% forfeiture) for classes dropped from the 8th through the 30th calendar day of the quarter during Autumn, Winter and Spring quarters or from the 8th through the 21st calendar day of Summer quarter. If you drop below full-time, you will be charged the tuition rate for the number of credits that you are taking, plus one-half of the difference between full-time tuition and your new rate. For changes made on the 31st day or later, you will be charged 100% of the tuition amount. These are called forfeitures.
